The irony of the woman, telling Trevor "let me finish", while interrupting him the whole time. That's not a reporter, she doesn't want his opinion, she just wants to be right.
Agreed. If she wants to do an opinion piece she should just do one. I have no respect for this nonsense. She could have still asked him all of those questions and made her point while actually having a conversation if she was a skilled journalist. Makes me miss guys like Ed Bradley so much more.
The core to the entire experiment in democracy started with allowing the public the right to offend. The right to offend the church, the king and others. Enshrined in law, in a constitutional document that grants rights to the common man.
Trevor Noah is the most patient person on the planet. Seriously. His ability to communicate with difficult people without losing his cool is legendary.
Typical South African, we even find a way to have a sense of humour even in difficult times. We have Ubuntu and we are so patient and calm but becareful we will roast you while smiling. Mandela was like that.

🤣🤣trevors comedy has transformed over the years that to date its so low rated, i kinda think that abba and peach reacted to this old video of his to restore his reputation a bit
She was so aggressive, obnoxious, taking everything out of context to try to bully him. She wanted him to bow. He didn't. I was impressed with how calm he remained. He is so intelligent and funny.
That’s what happens when someone thinks they have a point to make and while trying to make establish the point they realize they actually have no point so they start grappling
I saw the original interview. As a journalist ... I can say she's incompetent. Hard hitting questions doesn't mean sticking to your agenda but listening to the person's response and asking the hard follow up. That's the key. Allow the person to speak to address the question, then ask the direct follow up. She's horrible and Trevor handled that like a champ.
She basically just harassed him hoping he would fold and succumb to her pressure. She is like my mother in an argument, just wanting to be right for the sake of their own pride.🙄🙄🙄🙄😒
She can't even look at him most of the time, while Trevor my man is just staring at her really to shut down whatever nonsense she's trying to bring up. One of the worst "journalist" I've ever seen. She is struggling just saying what's written on her freaking card.
She was literally just offended by the joke, most poc will refer to their color as a milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel, moca.... I've heard these all and this is the only person I ever see be offended about it.
She didn’t seem to want to actually interview him. She wanted to belittle and chastise him. He was brilliant, patient and a complete gentlemen while holding his own. More respect was given to her than she deserved.
Yeah, kind of like watching them interview anyone in America who is not a radical leftist like Trump, Bongiono, or even the way they lie on all these kids like Rittenhouse or the kid who sued CNN for millions..
Mad respect to Trevor Noah for this. He spoke so clearly and calmly while also getting his point across with metaphors and literal descriptions. Can’t praise his intellect and demeanor here enough.
This doesn’t seem like a conversation it sounds like she’s trying to beat him down to make him feel bad based on her own beliefs. Aren’t journalists supposed to be unbiased?
The worst part of that interview is the way she CONTINUOUSLY cuts him off, trying to forcibly negate his freedom of speech to steal the argument. Just. Stop it. Please.
I see why it’s called “hard talk”, it’s hard for anyone to talk without getting interrupted. It’s hard to say what you want to say without her spinning her own narrative to her questions. It’s hard to talk.
Him: "Context is everything." Her: "Granted, but your context isn't the same as their context, and their context is due to their historical context, and another woman from a different context doesn't share their context, so isn't your context out of context?" Him: "Are you dumb stupid ignorant? Not only are ignoring what you just agreed to, you are also contradicting yourself." When so-called "intellectuals" don't even use the brains God gave them, it makes me want to smack them in the face with a trout.
You guys are totally right. That wasn't an interview, that was a series of accusations which she did not allow him to refute, and he is more than well spoked enough to have refuted them.
Journalist, “Yeah but he’s black.” As if all black people everywhere are all the same. The narrow mindedness of that statement just really shows where she was going with this interview. Trying to guilt someone to feel bad about someone else’s experience that they don’t and never will feel bad about. That’s THAT person’s experience and feelings from somewhere else, not Trevor’s. I mean, I didn’t really get anything about race until my pops got stationed in the south when I turned 9. Other than that, the only thing I knew when it came to color was what I saw in my crayon box or ice cream flavors. That was my experience as a child, but taken out of context could offend a lot of people. So, her demeaning his personal experience and trying to take everything out of context deliberately is just all around rude.
You know what would be hilarious? There was a BBC "diversity chief" Miranda Wayland, so this woman's own company in this vid, who stated that Luther from the absolutely great show that I recommend by the same name called "Luther" with Idris Elba playing him, wasn't "black enough" because he didn't eat Caribbean food, didn't have many black friends, and such absolute horse sh*. So might as well say most of black Africa isn't "black enough" because they don't eat Caribbean food. Trevor should have questioned her on that in return. This is the level of mental infantilism we are dealing with when it comes to the inclusion and diversity crowd in the West which is put into actual management and power positions. I don't know how Westerners haven't collapsed themselves yet, but they are trying, oh they are trying.
Trevor even looked amused at some stage. And you know what, Trevor is amazing. Also surprised, as South African, that he didn't burst out laughing. He handled it like a pro. So proud of him and everything he does and stands for.
I'm impressed at Trevor Noah's skill at creatively answering her questions. Not many would have come up with using a song lyric like that on the spot to prove a point.
This isn't an interview, this is a failed attempt at a correction. She's trying to correct something that isn't wrong, it's just something she disagrees with. It's a one sided conversation.
I saw this interview over 2 years ago, and was appalled by her sheer ignorance, especially when she was trying to emphasize that what she was saying was right and what Trevor needed to do was agree with her and apologize for what he has said. Though she eventually calmed down when she saw that Trevor is not a push over. She also had a run with the prime minister of Barbados; Her Excellency quickly put this journalist in her place and she aligned over the remaining course of the interview.
Exactly!! I said the same thing as the interview continued and her rude imposing interview failed as Trevor wasn't having it thus changed her demeanour and I'll bet gained his respect after
@@bubbabeats11 - yes but she wasn't even making valid points.. Lenny apologising about his joke, has nothing to do with Trevor... was a very frustrating watch.
She literally won’t shut up and let him answer the questions. She is working backward from her already decided conclusion, and just keeps hammering on while he gives solid answers.
Why have I never heard the term "Working backwards from her already decided conclusion" that is an absolutely perfect way to put it. I am never going to not use that term again. 100% agree
After Trevor realized that he was dealing with a narcissist with a "victim" mindset, he basically became very philosophical and began to school her like he was talking to an angry 3yr old.
She was doing him the way he does everyone else... it's funny see a bunch of leftists stand up like this for someone who literally does the same thing to other people.
@@chuckdeuces911 Ah yes, "He does it to others, so it's only right to do it to him!" What are you, 12? Also, who does he do it to? Last I checked Trevor is a *Comedian* that comments on the news not an *Interviewer/news anchor*
@Adi Yogi Trevor Noah is an equal opportunity roaster. He talks about everything and everyone in the news and in his life. What does leftist have to do with anything?
He was upset because that’s the role he wants to Play!! This is the same guy who is pushing for censorship, rallying behind YT removing the dislike button because it’s “mean” and who calls anyone he disagrees with “far right” 🙄
If she had to watch any of Trevor’s shows from his early days in SA she would blow a gasket 😂😂😂 Trevor is the funniest person to come out of our country and his ability to make fun of every single person without showing any prejudice to any race is something I still commend him for
If Trevor feels sad at all, it is because he remembers telling jokes to make people laugh, instead of saying whatever his writers tell him to on a scripted news show
His South African stand up is legendary, but I think it only hits home if you live in Africa and have the cultural context... I noticed it by watching his USA tour; couldn't get into it
I agree and ive come around on Trevor...at the same time this is karma rewarding hypocrisy. He's definitely played the role she's playing before when it comes to opposing views
Trevor Noah is offended and blames white people for his failure of a career.. he is only famous because of rich conneccted parents, just like Amy Schumer because of Chuck Schumer. Get real bro.
Being personally offended doesn't give you access to the ability to censor me. "Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right." - Ricky Gervais
“Are you not enforcing prejudices and stereotypes” from the same person that implied he should feel the same way as another black man because they are both black lol. Can’t make this stuff up.
That was an interrogation, not an interview. Trevor outclasses every single interviewer who tries to trigger him. Just by simply speaking calmly and eloquently he makes them seem dumber with each reply. I wonder how much of Trevor's local stand up she has watched - before he went international. As a South African, I respect how he handles race because nobody is safe. It doesn't matter what flavour of chocolate you are!
@homo sexual feminine male whistleblower confesion your name sent my head spinning I'm still recovering, I'm not gonna attempt to decode your encrypted comment.
I've been cringing for 15 years - the BBC is beyond a joke and should be forced to go to a private subscription model. Then we will really see how much clout it really has.
@@myeka1273 your biased 29 year's area objectively wrong, they're weren't always this idiotic, eceb now they are better then fox or others, less cringy
"I'm offended" is not an argument. Why is she so insistent that he's sorry about it, when he's obviously not. Trevor Noah makes the most "safe" and sanitised jokes anyways.
Yes he’s literally frowning at how delirious she is. She’s scolding him, from a fake woke/righteous position instead of interviewing the guy. She’s so annoying. Thinking it’s her role to be coming to everyone’s defense, and her word over all logic
That wasn’t hard talk. That was an attack of Trevor and HIS personal beliefs on His racial life experiences, not really a critique about his craft. Why is she so angry? Sounds like she’s got identity issues. Trevor was a stand up professional and gentleman! And remember it’s comedy!! Chill the hell out!
This "interview" was more about her than it was about him. So he could've just bounced and let her have this conversation with herself. SHE MOOVIN MAD BRUV!!!
She sounds like every cancel culture person that’s triggered by comedians. Like you said Aba, “context is everything in comedy.” Glad Trevor Noah stood his ground on this one.
I wouldn't count on Trever Noah having a spine. He's had a history of being oversensitive about race so if anything this makes me think he's more defending HIMSELF not freedom to make a joke.
Someone should tell her that historically, and even in the present in Asia and even Latin America, the ones that get lined up against the walls after comedians are the reporters.
I pray that I never hear another word of British comedy. That ish suuuuuckkksss. Its terrible. If you're not willing to push the barrier you don't belong anywhere near an American comedy stage. We are not entertained by them. Thats not a diss.
@@xXBrianBelloxX I call my friends every racist homophobic slur and marginalize their actions stereotypically the second the do something stupid. Its fair to say we laugh a lot. I pray my dms are graphically publicized. Im not holding anything back.
As a South African, that joke at the beginning about the Swiss chocolate was universally praised😂 no one was hurt because it was just a comedy skit. SA has a lot of racial tension but even we can separate a joke from a comedian and a statement made to offend.
I just don’t get how the joke is prejudice if he included, white, black, and tan people. Literally everyone is a type of “chocolate” not just one group
Twitter has made foreigners realise that South Africans poke fun at everything serious. That's how we cope and come together. This woman should have realised that Trevor and his humour is molded by this culture.
My favorite part about this interview is that its supposed to enforce and draw focus to issues regarding skin colour but also manages to categorize all black people as the same and try to draw abitrary connections all while acting ignorant at the same time. Truly a masterclass in shitty interview technique. Take notes journalists! Surprise Trevor didnt say ''Well youre black. Why dont we have the exact same opinion?'' Also, if being ''african america'' is a statement of being unique and separate, does that also not mean that they intentionally decided to have a connection but not the confused with africans? They are born, raised and live on a different continent and know nothing about the intricate parts of each others culture.
She couldn't even help laughing with him. Reminds me of that time Patrice defended Don Imus on Fox, he was put up against a feminist, & got her to laugh at the "sexist" joke.
This is the formula that the guy pioneered this "new journalist". Its being argumentative whether it gas a basis or not. Just picked a side an argue for hopefully good ratings. She probably doesn't believe what she is saying but paycheck over integrity
You have to remember these people do not represent average folks. They are insulated from the real world. Dave Chappelle’s greatest line in recent history(for me) is that “the media is trying to make us believe the extremities amongst us are the norm.” It’s so true that they want us to see caricatures instead of people. Facebook recently was outed for purposely angering people to drive engagement, but make no mistake the media invented that technique.
@@Gobackto4chan that's also ignoring the south African audience. I'd wanted to reply to @mpilo with the fact that hundreds of other Africans live and laugh with Trevor, bought his book, watch the daily Show because of him etc True diversity is having different voices saying something, not just a different parrot 🙄🙄 Anywhoo ✊🏿 Trevor
@@leanmeanmenace1744 💩 both are still South African!?? I studied there and even I don't have a say in their country's socio-politics. What would you like to add to the topic 🙄🙄
One of those people who lost their identity, this lady, you can notice she's not in a good space and there's lot of underlying factors there. Thank you Trevor for paralyzing her.
Trying to force him into admitting wrongs, guilt and regret that he doesn’t have. Wild to see. I really don’t know how some of these people keep their cool with “journalists” like this
Usually the people keeping their cool are much more intelligent than those journalists. Akin to losing your cool when a 5 yr old asks why is your hair gray, you just smile and answer, no need to stoop to their level of ignorance.
HOLY HOLY!!! I can proudly say that I have the two HOTTEST women on this planet as MY GIRLFRIENDS! I am the unprettiest RUclipsr ever, but they love me for what's inside! Thanks for listening fra
Her job is to try rip him apart not listen to what he have to say 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ the man have a black mother and a white father he can say what he please about it mother if you like it are not.
All I can see is that she's carrying a lot of hurt. That's sad because like that you get offended by people who are not even referring to you. Like in this case.
She is an embarrassment to journalism. This is so difficult to watch. I hope she tries to interview Dave Chappelle or Ricky Gervais next - will get popcorn.
She's no journalist, because if she is, I'll start hating journalists the same I hate politicians.. she's just a dumb woman, who projects whatever hurt her on others. No respect.
It’s like she’s never seen a single one of his interviews. Trevor is so kind to all of his guests, even the ones he doesn’t agree with. It just lacks etiquette and professionalism
I actually found that "Chocolate" joke quite heartwarming. At the time he was born, racial segregation had just ended here, and there were still tension between races. So I see it as beautiful that they formed a bond beyond race. Also who doesn't like chocolate 👀
I felt sympathy for him. The joke didn’t come from a malicious place and the way in which he delivered it directly contradicts what the interviewer was implying.
@@mikeansley5306 cause it has a simple childish view to it, it sounds like something a little innocent kid would say. Plus it's Chocolate, there's nothing bad comparing someone to sweets, unless I'm missing something. It's cute and wholesome.
I'm a black guy and when I'm offered chocolate, I'll quite lamely say that I'm the only chocolate i need in my life. Because I usually have a serious, external demeanor, most white people laugh. But some don't. Comedy is subjective and sometimes the best jokes, although can be seen a little offensive, remedy a tense situation.
@@paul_elago The daily show is written by a BUNCH of different writers who work for the studio. As someone that absolutely can’t stand it, you should watch his comedy. It’s still on the same par
Nah man, he is of the same Woke material, he's getting bitten by the own ideology he promotes in his night show. Let him have it, this makes me Karma moist. I hope he gets turbo cancelled for no valid reason at all, because that has been his MO for a while.
tbh he was far too intelligent for her. He was mocking her, and I'm sure there will inevitably be people that latch on in her defense but he really should be commended for keeping his cool
This guy does such a great job at explaining his point calmly without not taking a jab at her, and the way he can collect his thoughts on the spot is impressive too.
She's another perfect example of someone who thinks herself intelligent, only to open her mouth and prove the opposite. I believe the damage that pushing a narrative in the way she is will do far more harm than any joke ever will.
On behalf of all British people who appreciate comedians, I apologise for this stupid woman, I don't even really like Trevor Noah that much as a comedian but this whole interview is just moronic and he handled it brilliantly
People like this woman do their best to erase context in order to generate controversy (and hate, and animosity) out of nothing because they directly benefit financially, professionally and socially from the engagement it creates, and such people can be absolutely counted on to frame any resistance to the erasure of context as "splitting hairs." He's not splitting hairs, sweetie. He's sorting fruit. Specifically, apples and oranges. People like this woman will serve you tomato in a fruit salad, and when you complain, she says "it's all fruit," instead of "I can see why you don't want to eat that."
Exactly she’s finding any reason to fight because she directly benefits from this. This reminds me of the interview with Jordan Peterson and that one reporter who kept trying to criticize him
Great reaction video! Smart, insightful and funny! I remember when I first saw this interview years ago how annoyed I was with the interviewer. I have seen many of her interviews for years before on the BBC and all she does is interrupt her guests and put them down. In about 35% to 50% cases, she has done that when a guest is talking BS or not answering her questions, and I have agreed with her interjections; however, in this case, she seems to have an agenda here to put him down. She doesn't seem to understand what comedy is and clearly does not understand context and did not do her research on Trevor's comedy to understand where he is coming from. I am pleased to see how Trevor set her straight. Other guests have not been able to do that. Merci!
As a black person from SA I’m surprised that Trevor didn’t burst out laughing at this ridiculous argument 😂😂 in him eyes he just looked amazed at how dumb this conversation was 😂😂
For me its funny how some black people from the US call themselves African-Americans, when the only thing relates them to Africa is some ancestors that got enslaved by other black tribes and sold. Didnt those people live enough generations in the US by now to just feel like Americans? Why the seperation? In a lot cases you can be happy you live in the US, even the people live in the US slums often have more than the regular people in a lot other countries on the world, such high is the US wealth status. Additionaly you guys have the right to speak whatever is on your minds and not being pulled away the next day by state special units and never been found again. I really dont understand people that claim to their long long ago roots so extremely, how can you claim to a root you basicaly never experienced yourself? You did not grew up in Africa, you did not experience the sturggle of people live in the countries there, so how can you identify yourself as such just by some ancient ancestors and by a color of your skin? I know some white people in the US do the same BS too, they call themself Anglo-americans or so. I really dont get it. You guys live in a solely different country, never really experienced the life of those countries you want to identify yourself with, thats so broken. Same issue we have here in germany with the tukish people in germany, they dont want to forget those roots, do not integrate, but became somethings between a german and a turkish person. If they go to Turkey the really turkish people there just shake their heads about them because they are so different. So as a "african-american" you have barelly anything in common to people living in African countries, you never went trough their struggles, you people are just Americans.
The gall to call him out for doing African accents in his set. HES AFRICAN, HE'S DOING AN IMPRESSION OF HIS OWN MOTHER. Who is that offensive to? The implication that he should somehow white up his mums voice? So his mums voice isn't racist?
This is what reverse racism initially referred to until sjw’s appropriated that to mean “racism against whites” which is redundant for that is simply racism.
And to your point, what does a black person sounds like? It’s comedy and trying to say a South African can or cannot impersonate people who he was raised around is insulting
@Blue Plumbob if you think that he single handedly can promote racism and discrimination towards black people then you haven't gone outside. The purpose of a joke is to display a satirical, absurd, or hyperbolic take on an aspect(s) of life. If you're take a joke that serious then you shouldn't be listening to comedy. A racist isn't going to be more racist because of jokes. A racist is going to be a racist because they're racists. They aren't created out of the jokes he tells. They're created because of other racists and their influence in implanting discriminatory ideology that other races are less than
As an African staying in Africa, I find that you westerners have too much time. When you have to worry about water, electricity, high cost of food and etc, you'd occupy your minds with more edifying things other than cancelling stuff.
Preach Im black born and raised in the west. I'm so tired of hearing about "oppressed minorities" in western countries. From people drinking $7 Starbucks lattes with their $1000 phones acting like we have it tough. When slavery is still alive and well in many countries. It makes me sick 🤦🏾♀️
Thank you for acting out my annoyance at this interview. Trevor is definitely composed. I'm not built like that. I was mad the moment she thought he should regret something because someone else did. 😅🤣
"Because some people say that's not very funny" I've read atleast 100 different comments saying that Amy Schumer is less than funny, yet she has a career in Hollywood...
Is Arnold Schwarzenegger a good actor or did he just have the exact look for what Hollywood needed at the time? Not many people have had better careers in acting than him and his biggest role was playing a robot with no personality.
I'm a South African, Trevor is displaying typical south african sense of humor. We have a dry and "messed up" sense of humor😂🤷🏾♀️. If u watch his early shows... They are "way more offensive". But u would have to have our sense of humor to understand. Trevor has gone in harder... He goes after our politicians, race issues, culture, etc. This woman must relax....
I came here for this comment. It's so hypocritical too because the UK (by some of us) are considered architects of racism. But I guess they find our ability to see humor in our racial diversity as offensive because they see our racial diversity as an offense.
As a white, red haired African, European I am proud how my man Trevor keeps his calm. What, I can't be an African, European and white? It's only been 2 million years or so since my ancestors Migrated to Europe so check your privileges! We all came from somewhere and we all sometimes need something to laugh about, I have red hair and heard so many jokes about having no soul almost all of them were at least somewhat entertaining. In short It's a Joke Not a Sausage Don't Take It So Hard
I love how he handles her. She wasn’t interested to converse with him and was extremely rude. She seemed more comfortable with being argumentative and disrespectful than to let him respond which is how a conversation goes.
@@suzygirl1843 let me just reiterate my initial thoughts…She wasn’t interested in conversing with him and having a back and forth. You can ask questions and not talk over the response to get your point across. Period. Do his comments as a black woman make me uncomfortable about how he describes his mother wanting a “light skinned child” so she went a found a white man?! Absolutely. No question anyone that says that is wrong no matter the race. Do I think Trevor is handsome? Absolutely. Doesn’t denote that I think how she conducted the interview was unprofessional and disrespectful. I love to discuss polemic but each side deserves a fair and civil opportunity to be heard and me thinking he is absolutely delicious doesn’t stop him from dating mostly non black women. It’s offensive to believe that I would think that way but also to believe I would have this so called “pick me” attitude assuming he would ever see this. That would be quite presumptuous. I think she was wrong, I think he is handsome and I think you took this comment way out of context like she took his jokes. Relax.
@@suzygirl1843 no I haven’t watched her before. If this is how she interviews then she is still just as rude and argumentative just now you confirm it’s all the time. That’s doesn’t make a good journalist to ask a question and while they respond talk over them and don’t let them finish their response just talk over them like their response. It doesn’t make her look better. It just makes it look like instead of giving someone a fair shake she just tries to make them look bad. That’s not good journalism. That’s actually bad. You have never seen Bryant Gumble or Barbara Walters behave this way? Even Nancy Grace doesn’t carry on this way and I would consider her a “hard hitting” journalist who knows how to interview. In spite of the way I feel about what he has said, he was definitely better than her in that moment. He certainly carried himself better and displayed a better sense of decorum.
@@suzygirl1843 I am not defending him per se just the side of right in my own opinion. I don’t need to watch anymore of her interviews on Geopolitical issues or anything else to know this interview wasn’t conducted by a woman who didn’t already have an agenda(like you say) or have her mind already made up about what he meant. It’s not baseless if I just watched her interview someone. It’s based off of the interview I just watched. That was enough for me to form my own opinion.
I can’t believe this woman went after Trevor Noah like that, he is seriously one of the most safest stand-up comedians. He also didn’t do anything wrong by saying that he and his family are chocolate, actually find that analogy to be quite sweet, no pun intended.
I think it’s because he’s one of the safest comedians they feel they can go after them and strong arm them into changing their ways to fit the persons views. Where as the more offensive comedians don’t care what other think so they just brush aside any criticism they get
Because you can always be more woke. What was once moderate is now exclusive. What was once liberal is now moderate. Strange how a culture that prides itself on being inclusive is also exclusive
This women was so annoying... As a South African we support Trevor all the way. Taking things out of context ignites fires and has no benifit. She is oblivious to everything 🤦🏾♂️... Respect to Trevor for standing his ground. 🙏🏾
Trevor Noah's face while he sits there listening to the fifth time she's droning on and on about Lenny Henry is priceless. I'm gonna start using a screenshot of it as a reply to stubborn stupidity.
The swift realisation in Trevor's eyes that this scripted, tokenised woman has allowed herself to be weaponised for the BBC's agenda. He definitely outsmarted her by remaining cool, calm and collected.
She made the mistake of underestimating the intelligence of her guest. And I agree she was not prepared to LISTEN to her own questions. In SA we would say "Ag shame" when she got "schooled". Viva Trevor!🤣
@@bongzilla4172 Agreed. I’m politically in the middle so I hate cringe on either side. I think most people are overall closer to the middle but the crazies of CNN, Fox and RUclips equivalents are the loudest.
Right? Like I wouldn't have been able to keep myself from laughing and asking what the fuck she's on about? "Well this comedian said..." Okay? The fuck does that got to do with me, y'goofy-bitch? LMAOOOOO!
As a South African let me tell you this: we make jokes about literally EVERYTHING! We are currently going through an electricity crises and guess what we are doing? making jokes about it. Every South African comedian I have seen includes race in their stand up We laugh and laugh especially if it’s a joke about our own race 🤷🏻♀️ so she wants Trevor apologise for being South African? imagine
This is exactly like those kids, at colleges, who protest when a speaker they don't like, is coming to their facility to hold an event. They get up and disrupt the auditorium with yelling and chanting because they don't agree with what that person is speaking about. I imagined myself sitting in one of those auditoriums. I would stand up and ask them why they are disrupting the event. When they state that they don't like the speaker and think his views are garbage, I would ask them, "And how did you determine that you disagreed with their views?" When they answered that they researched and listened to video clips, read their literature, and heard them speak.... I would then ask, "So... if you allowed yourself the right to hear this person and make up your own mind about them, why would you think that its ok to take that same right away from me?" That's what the problem is with these types of arguments. 'I wouldn't do that, so you shouldn't.' You had the freedom to determine your own feelings on the matter, then you turn around and presume to rob the other person of that same freedom. It's arrogant, and disrespectful. As long as what they are saying doesn't violate any laws, they have to right to determine if a joke they tell is ok for them to tell. You don't have to like it, or listen to it.
An explanation of a joke is never anything like the joke originally being told. Even the exact words written down and read afterwards completely changes it. Like Trevor says the context with communication is so important.
The irony of the woman, telling Trevor "let me finish", while interrupting him the whole time. That's not a reporter, she doesn't want his opinion, she just wants to be right.
Agreed. If she wants to do an opinion piece she should just do one. I have no respect for this nonsense. She could have still asked him all of those questions and made her point while actually having a conversation if she was a skilled journalist. Makes me miss guys like Ed Bradley so much more.

Typical South African, we even find a way to have a sense of humour even in difficult times. We have Ubuntu and we are so patient and calm but becareful we will roast you while smiling. Mandela was like that.

Reporter: “Sniper out on all digital platforms brav”
😂😂
I just burst out laughing. I loved that video 🤣🤣🤣
🤣😂 This lady is moving mad lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This needs to be pinned
She was so aggressive, obnoxious, taking everything out of context to try to bully him. She wanted him to bow. He didn't. I was impressed with how calm he remained. He is so intelligent and funny.
Intelligent I suppose
Funny- nah
That’s what happens when someone thinks they have a point to make and while trying to make establish the point they realize they actually have no point so they start grappling
He is amazing in his ability to redirect and not engage in the stupid
Every comedian will say that any of their jokes can be taken out of context when read the wrong way.
That's our Boi, 👌mnyise sani
I saw the original interview. As a journalist ... I can say she's incompetent. Hard hitting questions doesn't mean sticking to your agenda but listening to the person's response and asking the hard follow up. That's the key. Allow the person to speak to address the question, then ask the direct follow up. She's horrible and Trevor handled that like a champ.
In some cases, they (journalists) are given the questions to ask.
She basically just harassed him hoping he would fold and succumb to her pressure. She is like my mother in an argument, just wanting to be right for the sake of their own pride.🙄🙄🙄🙄😒
She wasn't really trying to have a "hard talk"
She's trying to incriminate him, but it's not working cuz Trevor's too smart and composed...
She wanted him to apologize and she didn't accept he wasn't remorseful but she wasn't able to argue because she didn't have any argument
She can't even look at him most of the time, while Trevor my man is just staring at her really to shut down whatever nonsense she's trying to bring up. One of the worst "journalist" I've ever seen. She is struggling just saying what's written on her freaking card.
Why him out of all people? He's so not controversial.
She was literally just offended by the joke, most poc will refer to their color as a milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel, moca.... I've heard these all and this is the only person I ever see be offended about it.
Her internal monologue during the interview; "But, but, you're supposed to apologize, and hopefully cry on camera for me."
She didn’t seem to want to actually interview him. She wanted to belittle and chastise him. He was brilliant, patient and a complete gentlemen while holding his own. More respect was given to her than she deserved.
Yeah, kind of like watching them interview anyone in America who is not a radical leftist like Trump, Bongiono, or even the way they lie on all these kids like Rittenhouse or the kid who sued CNN for millions..
Terrible indictment. Or was that an interview.
She always does. She is always talking down to people. I despise her. She should not be doing that job. incapable of listening.
Agreed... Thumbs ALL the way up on your comment
It's 'hard talk', so it's the concept. So odd how people don't seem to get this. Both parties know and agree to this when they go into this.
That wasn’t an interview, it was an ambush that tragically failed.
Glad it did lol
Tragic………truly.
comedically failed
Mad respect to Trevor Noah for this. He spoke so clearly and calmly while also getting his point across with metaphors and literal descriptions. Can’t praise his intellect and demeanor here enough.
This doesn’t seem like a conversation it sounds like she’s trying to beat him down to make him feel bad based on her own beliefs. Aren’t journalists supposed to be unbiased?
Hasn’t been that way for the last decade….
To be honest since when were journalists based
Look how he's crying lmao. Lemme drink those yummy male tears
@@av4781 what?
Not anymore
The worst part of that interview is the way she CONTINUOUSLY cuts him off, trying to forcibly negate his freedom of speech to steal the argument. Just. Stop it. Please.
You ever argue with a woman? It's not the skin color, it's the gender.
@@HIPN0T1ZE exactly what I was thinking...
@@HIPN0T1ZE Spot on mate you can’t argue with them. The more they talk the more ridiculous they sound.
Unfortunately over here, freedom of speech only applies if it follows the loudest opinions.
Hopefully she doesn't actually want to remove freedom of speech.
I see why it’s called “hard talk”, it’s hard for anyone to talk without getting interrupted. It’s hard to say what you want to say without her spinning her own narrative to her questions.
It’s hard to talk.
😂😂😂😂
So true, omg!!🤣
So irritating. Like I want to hear Trevor’s answers smh
Him: "Context is everything."
Her: "Granted, but your context isn't the same as their context, and their context is due to their historical context, and another woman from a different context doesn't share their context, so isn't your context out of context?"
Him: "Are you dumb stupid ignorant? Not only are ignoring what you just agreed to, you are also contradicting yourself."
When so-called "intellectuals" don't even use the brains God gave them, it makes me want to smack them in the face with a trout.
Exactly! 🤣🤣She had an agenda, which was to spin her own narrative!
You guys are totally right. That wasn't an interview, that was a series of accusations which she did not allow him to refute, and he is more than well spoked enough to have refuted them.
"I didn't deliver it like that, you're not doing my jokes justice" 😂😂😂😂
Journalist, “Yeah but he’s black.”
As if all black people everywhere are all the same. The narrow mindedness of that statement just really shows where she was going with this interview. Trying to guilt someone to feel bad about someone else’s experience that they don’t and never will feel bad about. That’s THAT person’s experience and feelings from somewhere else, not Trevor’s. I mean, I didn’t really get anything about race until my pops got stationed in the south when I turned 9. Other than that, the only thing I knew when it came to color was what I saw in my crayon box or ice cream flavors. That was my experience as a child, but taken out of context could offend a lot of people. So, her demeaning his personal experience and trying to take everything out of context deliberately is just all around rude.
Word ✊🏻
You know what would be hilarious? There was a BBC "diversity chief" Miranda Wayland, so this woman's own company in this vid, who stated that Luther from the absolutely great show that I recommend by the same name called "Luther" with Idris Elba playing him, wasn't "black enough" because he didn't eat Caribbean food, didn't have many black friends, and such absolute horse sh*. So might as well say most of black Africa isn't "black enough" because they don't eat Caribbean food. Trevor should have questioned her on that in return. This is the level of mental infantilism we are dealing with when it comes to the inclusion and diversity crowd in the West which is put into actual management and power positions. I don't know how Westerners haven't collapsed themselves yet, but they are trying, oh they are trying.
This was more racist than the joke she had a problem with
"As if all black people everywhere are all the same." According to Joe Biden?
Well, to the Democrats all black people are the same
Trevors dry response to her reading his jokes is comedy in itself.
Well her delivery was trash
Funny the left now cares lol Trump was hilarious and Biden is even funnier 🤣
@@bigmac6332 🤔

@@bigmac6332 trump _is_ hilarious..Biden is an embarrassment to laugh _at_ so there’s is a big difference there.
Trevor even looked amused at some stage. And you know what, Trevor is amazing. Also surprised, as South African, that he didn't burst out laughing. He handled it like a pro. So proud of him and everything he does and stands for.
I'm impressed at Trevor Noah's skill at creatively answering her questions. Not many would have come up with using a song lyric like that on the spot to prove a point.
Rightttt that was so clever
Yeah but he’s an artist so.
He also african and Africans love coming back creatively
@We_live_in a_society Pretty sure he grew up in South Africa, not Africa-Europe.
Fr, I mean he is a comedian
This isn't an interview, this is a failed attempt at a correction. She's trying to correct something that isn't wrong, it's just something she disagrees with. It's a one sided conversation.

yha reporters aren't supposed to do that
@@mysticstrikeforce5957 You are right, but leftist and feminists do it all the time.
She is a horrible interviewer no cap
I saw this interview over 2 years ago, and was appalled by her sheer ignorance, especially when she was trying to emphasize that what she was saying was right and what Trevor needed to do was agree with her and apologize for what he has said. Though she eventually calmed down when she saw that Trevor is not a push over.
She also had a run with the prime minister of Barbados; Her Excellency quickly put this journalist in her place and she aligned over the remaining course of the interview.
Exactly!! I said the same thing as the interview continued and her rude imposing interview failed as Trevor wasn't having it thus changed her demeanour and I'll bet gained his respect after
the fact that she is not letting him speak is just shocking. He mentions context and she just tries to railroad him...
the not letting him speak is done on purpose tho, anytime someone is about to prove a valid point, its common place to talk over them
@@bubbabeats11 - yes but she wasn't even making valid points.. Lenny apologising about his joke, has nothing to do with Trevor... was a very frustrating watch.
Exactly, she's not there for a conversation. She's there for a debate and he still eloquently crushes her
Not surprising, she works for the BBC.
@@xXBrianBelloxX probably because most people don't need context with a joke explained🤔🤔🤔
She literally won’t shut up and let him answer the questions. She is working backward from her already decided conclusion, and just keeps hammering on while he gives solid answers.
She sounded so unprofessional. That was not an interview but an interrogation. She sounded like a jilted ex or a one nightstand he doesn't remember.
Yeah i was really curious what noah wants to say because it sounded more enlighten then her "woke" questions.
Why have I never heard the term "Working backwards from her already decided conclusion" that is an absolutely perfect way to put it. I am never going to not use that term again. 100% agree
Cause she triggered
Journalists in a nutshell
After Trevor realized that he was dealing with a narcissist with a "victim" mindset, he basically became very philosophical and began to school her like he was talking to an angry 3yr old.
She was doing him the way he does everyone else... it's funny see a bunch of leftists stand up like this for someone who literally does the same thing to other people.
@@chuckdeuces911 Ah yes, "He does it to others, so it's only right to do it to him!"
What are you, 12? Also, who does he do it to? Last I checked Trevor is a *Comedian* that comments on the news not an *Interviewer/news anchor*
@@CookiePieMonster he call anyone who he, or his group ideology, disagree with “nazi”.
@Adi Yogi Trevor Noah is an equal opportunity roaster. He talks about everything and everyone in the news and in his life. What does leftist have to do with anything?
He was upset because that’s the role he wants to Play!! This is the same guy who is pushing for censorship, rallying behind YT removing the dislike button because it’s “mean” and who calls anyone he disagrees with “far right” 🙄
If she had to watch any of Trevor’s shows from his early days in SA she would blow a gasket 😂😂😂 Trevor is the funniest person to come out of our country and his ability to make fun of every single person without showing any prejudice to any race is something I still commend him for
If Trevor feels sad at all, it is because he remembers telling jokes to make people laugh, instead of saying whatever his writers tell him to on a scripted news show
Getting that 🍞 regardless
His South African stand up is legendary, but I think it only hits home if you live in Africa and have the cultural context... I noticed it by watching his USA tour; couldn't get into it

I wouldn't count on Trever Noah having a spine. He's had a history of being oversensitive about race so if anything this makes me think he's more defending HIMSELF not freedom to make a joke.

I just don’t get how the joke is prejudice if he included, white, black, and tan people. Literally everyone is a type of “chocolate” not just one group
I'd argue that comedy actually brings us South Africans together, like our rugby. Imagine how miserable we'd be if we couldn't laugh at everything
Twitter has made foreigners realise that South Africans poke fun at everything serious. That's how we cope and come together. This woman should have realised that Trevor and his humour is molded by this culture.
My favorite part about this interview is that its supposed to enforce and draw focus to issues regarding skin colour but also manages to categorize all black people as the same and try to draw abitrary connections all while acting ignorant at the same time. Truly a masterclass in shitty interview technique. Take notes journalists!
Surprise Trevor didnt say ''Well youre black. Why dont we have the exact same opinion?''
Also, if being ''african america'' is a statement of being unique and separate, does that also not mean that they intentionally decided to have a connection but not the confused with africans?
They are born, raised and live on a different continent and know nothing about the intricate parts of each others culture.
I just love it when comedians unapologetically laugh at their own jokes

You have to remember these people do not represent average folks. They are insulated from the real world.
Dave Chappelle’s greatest line in recent history(for me) is that “the media is trying to make us believe the extremities amongst us are the norm.” It’s so true that they want us to see caricatures instead of people.

tbh he was far too intelligent for her. He was mocking her, and I'm sure there will inevitably be people that latch on in her defense but he really should be commended for keeping his cool
This guy does such a great job at explaining his point calmly without not taking a jab at her, and the way he can collect his thoughts on the spot is impressive too.
" my mom was dark chocolates, my dad is white chocolate and I am milk chocolate" 😂 it's still funny to me
She's another perfect example of someone who thinks herself intelligent, only to open her mouth and prove the opposite. I believe the damage that pushing a narrative in the way she is will do far more harm than any joke ever will.

On behalf of all British people who appreciate comedians, I apologise for this stupid woman, I don't even really like Trevor Noah that much as a comedian but this whole interview is just moronic and he handled it brilliantly

People like this woman do their best to erase context in order to generate controversy (and hate, and animosity) out of nothing because they directly benefit financially, professionally and socially from the engagement it creates, and such people can be absolutely counted on to frame any resistance to the erasure of context as "splitting hairs." He's not splitting hairs, sweetie. He's sorting fruit. Specifically, apples and oranges. People like this woman will serve you tomato in a fruit salad, and when you complain, she says "it's all fruit," instead of "I can see why you don't want to eat that."
couldn’t have said it better myself
Exactly she’s finding any reason to fight because she directly benefits from this. This reminds me of the interview with Jordan Peterson and that one reporter who kept trying to criticize him

I have seen many of her interviews for years before on the BBC and all she does is interrupt her guests and put them down. In about 35% to 50% cases, she has done that when a guest is talking BS or not answering her questions, and I have agreed with her interjections; however, in this case, she seems to have an agenda here to put him down. She doesn't seem to understand what comedy is and clearly does not understand context and did not do her research on Trevor's comedy to understand where he is coming from. I am pleased to see how Trevor set her straight. Other guests have not been able to do that. Merci!
As a black person from SA I’m surprised that Trevor didn’t burst out laughing at this ridiculous argument 😂😂 in him eyes he just looked amazed at how dumb this conversation was 😂😂
I was thinking the same.
Trevor has mastered the art of being composed in his replies to anything...we all know he thought the interview was stupid😂
As dumb as most of his political comedy in which he is mostly a total hyporcit. His stand up is good thou'
For me its funny how some black people from the US call themselves African-Americans, when the only thing relates them to Africa is some ancestors that got enslaved by other black tribes and sold. Didnt those people live enough generations in the US by now to just feel like Americans? Why the seperation? In a lot cases you can be happy you live in the US, even the people live in the US slums often have more than the regular people in a lot other countries on the world, such high is the US wealth status. Additionaly you guys have the right to speak whatever is on your minds and not being pulled away the next day by state special units and never been found again.
I really dont understand people that claim to their long long ago roots so extremely, how can you claim to a root you basicaly never experienced yourself? You did not grew up in Africa, you did not experience the sturggle of people live in the countries there, so how can you identify yourself as such just by some ancient ancestors and by a color of your skin?
I know some white people in the US do the same BS too, they call themself Anglo-americans or so. I really dont get it. You guys live in a solely different country, never really experienced the life of those countries you want to identify yourself with, thats so broken. Same issue we have here in germany with the tukish people in germany, they dont want to forget those roots, do not integrate, but became somethings between a german and a turkish person. If they go to Turkey the really turkish people there just shake their heads about them because they are so different. So as a "african-american" you have barelly anything in common to people living in African countries, you never went trough their struggles, you people are just Americans.
@@Nr.7-Seven apparently you are German so you will never understand or choose not to understand!
The gall to call him out for doing African accents in his set. HES AFRICAN, HE'S DOING AN IMPRESSION OF HIS OWN MOTHER. Who is that offensive to? The implication that he should somehow white up his mums voice? So his mums voice isn't racist?
This is what reverse racism initially referred to until sjw’s appropriated that to mean “racism against whites” which is redundant for that is simply racism.
And to your point, what does a black person sounds like? It’s comedy and trying to say a South African can or cannot impersonate people who he was raised around is insulting
@Blue Plumbob if you think that he single handedly can promote racism and discrimination towards black people then you haven't gone outside. The purpose of a joke is to display a satirical, absurd, or hyperbolic take on an aspect(s) of life. If you're take a joke that serious then you shouldn't be listening to comedy. A racist isn't going to be more racist because of jokes. A racist is going to be a racist because they're racists. They aren't created out of the jokes he tells. They're created because of other racists and their influence in implanting discriminatory ideology that other races are less than
@Blue Plumbob Those problematics individuals are gonna find anything to justify their beliefs.
@Blue Plumbob i like that you had to feed us a paragraph of nonsense before you got to your point.
As an African staying in Africa, I find that you westerners have too much time. When you have to worry about water, electricity, high cost of food and etc, you'd occupy your minds with more edifying things other than cancelling stuff.
As an American I totally agree with you. We don’t realize how good we have it compared to others..
People would be better off with productive hobbies in the west.
my exact tho, im live in venezuela and i just cant understand most of the thing offend americans hahahaha
Preach Im black born and raised in the west. I'm so tired of hearing about "oppressed minorities" in western countries. From people drinking $7 Starbucks lattes with their $1000 phones acting like we have it tough. When slavery is still alive and well in many countries. It makes me sick 🤦🏾♀️
@@Missegyptlatesha shhhh get that logic outta here!
Thank you for acting out my annoyance at this interview. Trevor is definitely composed. I'm not built like that. I was mad the moment she thought he should regret something because someone else did. 😅🤣
“Don’t be her, let him finish.” 😂 that was funny.
Mia khalifa sat on the BBC for a hard talk. Context is everything in what i just wrote.
Agree 100%

"Because some people say that's not very funny"
I've read atleast 100 different comments saying that Amy Schumer is less than funny, yet she has a career in Hollywood...
Just because she has a career, doesn't mean she's funny
A career is definitely over stating it. She just steals jokes like they were hers in the first place.
Is Arnold Schwarzenegger a good actor or did he just have the exact look for what Hollywood needed at the time? Not many people have had better careers in acting than him and his biggest role was playing a robot with no personality.
This. Amy has been nothing but Vulgar and gross but it's surprising that they make her a Hollywood star.
No she doesn't.
I'm a South African, Trevor is displaying typical south african sense of humor. We have a dry and "messed up" sense of humor😂🤷🏾♀️. If u watch his early shows... They are "way more offensive". But u would have to have our sense of humor to understand. Trevor has gone in harder... He goes after our politicians, race issues, culture, etc. This woman must relax....
"but you would have to have our sense of humour to understand" exactly, essentially context is needed
Vanessa k don't even bother ,just ignore the "British woman" shame. wonder what are her origins????????????she is too serious sheeeeeem
South African comedy is savage. 😂😂😂😂 Even the hectic racial Jokes would freak Liberal Americans out. 🇿🇦
I came here for this comment. It's so hypocritical too because the UK (by some of us) are considered architects of racism. But I guess they find our ability to see humor in our racial diversity as offensive because they see our racial diversity as an offense.
I'm from Ivory coast and trust me we have savage sense of humour as well. She should just shut up😒
As a white, red haired African, European I am proud how my man Trevor keeps his calm. What, I can't be an African, European and white? It's only been 2 million years or so since my ancestors Migrated to Europe so check your privileges! We all came from somewhere and we all sometimes need something to laugh about, I have red hair and heard so many jokes about having no soul almost all of them were at least somewhat entertaining. In short It's a Joke Not a Sausage Don't Take It So Hard
“it's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.” - bill murray
I love how he handles her. She wasn’t interested to converse with him and was extremely rude. She seemed more comfortable with being argumentative and disrespectful than to let him respond which is how a conversation goes.
I like how he pointed out straight she wasn't doing his job well.
@@suzygirl1843 I don’t know what that is.
@@suzygirl1843 let me just reiterate my initial thoughts…She wasn’t interested in conversing with him and having a back and forth. You can ask questions and not talk over the response to get your point across. Period. Do his comments as a black woman make me uncomfortable about how he describes his mother wanting a “light skinned child” so she went a found a white man?! Absolutely. No question anyone that says that is wrong no matter the race. Do I think Trevor is handsome? Absolutely. Doesn’t denote that I think how she conducted the interview was unprofessional and disrespectful. I love to discuss polemic but each side deserves a fair and civil opportunity to be heard and me thinking he is absolutely delicious doesn’t stop him from dating mostly non black women. It’s offensive to believe that I would think that way but also to believe I would have this so called “pick me” attitude assuming he would ever see this. That would be quite presumptuous. I think she was wrong, I think he is handsome and I think you took this comment way out of context like she took his jokes. Relax.
@@suzygirl1843 no I haven’t watched her before. If this is how she interviews then she is still just as rude and argumentative just now you confirm it’s all the time. That’s doesn’t make a good journalist to ask a question and while they respond talk over them and don’t let them finish their response just talk over them like their response. It doesn’t make her look better. It just makes it look like instead of giving someone a fair shake she just tries to make them look bad. That’s not good journalism. That’s actually bad. You have never seen Bryant Gumble or Barbara Walters behave this way? Even Nancy Grace doesn’t carry on this way and I would consider her a “hard hitting” journalist who knows how to interview. In spite of the way I feel about what he has said, he was definitely better than her in that moment. He certainly carried himself better and displayed a better sense of decorum.
@@suzygirl1843 I am not defending him per se just the side of right in my own opinion. I don’t need to watch anymore of her interviews on Geopolitical issues or anything else to know this interview wasn’t conducted by a woman who didn’t already have an agenda(like you say) or have her mind already made up about what he meant. It’s not baseless if I just watched her interview someone. It’s based off of the interview I just watched. That was enough for me to form my own opinion.
Man, Trevor is a damn intelligent and well spoken man. He explained himself perfectly, and touched on every point perfectly
He's a hypocrite coward, he uses race as a talking point now and advocates race pandering agendas. LAME
@@humachine5226 I'm not sure how he is in general, but I just mean in this interview in particular
@@humachine5226 you seem to misunderstand. Trevor is the one being interviewed, not the "journalist".
@@-user_redacted- Trevor is a horrible person.
@@humachine5226 exactly!!! He’s just another Hollywierd hack willing to say what daddy wants him to for the almighty dollar. I miss John Stewart.
She probably thought Trevor was just an average 'funny guy' with no brains. Glad to see he made her look silly. Dude is very intelligent and eloquent.
I can’t believe this woman went after Trevor Noah like that, he is seriously one of the most safest stand-up comedians. He also didn’t do anything wrong by saying that he and his family are chocolate, actually find that analogy to be quite sweet, no pun intended.
I think it’s because he’s one of the safest comedians they feel they can go after them and strong arm them into changing their ways to fit the persons views. Where as the more offensive comedians don’t care what other think so they just brush aside any criticism they get
Because you can always be more woke. What was once moderate is now exclusive. What was once liberal is now moderate. Strange how a culture that prides itself on being inclusive is also exclusive
Some times those who find racism in everything are actual the racists . Any normal person will see good in chocolate comaprision
This women was so annoying... As a South African we support Trevor all the way. Taking things out of context ignites fires and has no benifit. She is oblivious to everything 🤦🏾♂️... Respect to Trevor for standing his ground. 🙏🏾
South Africa for the win ✨🕺

its classic bbc, they are nothing but a propaganda channel in crisis because we have had enough of funding their bull shit
She was trying to stir the pot. She should've known better than to mess with him. He's clearly more educated than she is.
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Trevor Noah's face while he sits there listening to the fifth time she's droning on and on about Lenny Henry is priceless. I'm gonna start using a screenshot of it as a reply to stubborn stupidity.
Start a new meme my guy! Come on
"That sounds funny to me, _even when you say it_ " I'm already dying
The swift realisation in Trevor's eyes that this scripted, tokenised woman has allowed herself to be weaponised for the BBC's agenda. He definitely outsmarted her by remaining cool, calm and collected.
Player recognizes player
His eyes say it 8:10
@@quekumber exactly all serve the same master. Maybe it was some sort of punishment
Trevor's patience is just incredible.
Wasn’t even addressing what he was saying, definitely would have walked out mid way through.
I wanna agree. But methinks he was just prepared for the bullshit.
I was just thinking of when Naomi walked out on that one interviewer. He's very patient.
Yeah he is, I would have flipped
Man I was boiling in my seat I cannot stand people like her
Bro when Aba said “why is Wu Tang Clan not something to fuck with” I started dying that was comedy gold
Imagine her going up to the NWA and asking them if they actually fucked the police. I'd be dead right there.
i passed out when he said “So NWA explain to me how you fucked the police”
I was sipping a soda at that moment.....I almost died🥴
Imagine being a reporter and constantly interrupting the person you’re interviewing 🤦🏼♂️
“Because he’s Lenny Henry and I’m Trevor Noah”. Done… he doesn’t need to say anything else. Everyone is their own person.
She's arguing with him like they're in a relationship. Relentless.
aay laytonicles, love your videos man.
Always like seeing your comments and videos Mr Laytonicles
She made the mistake of underestimating the intelligence of her guest. And I agree she was not prepared to LISTEN to her own questions. In SA we would say "Ag shame" when she got "schooled". Viva Trevor!🤣
😂😅
Agh Shem skepsel!!!!😅🤣🤣
@@zanelemotha6107 ba monyesa Goed!
Lol Viiiva..
She really liked the sound of her own voice. Trevor should have annihilated her.
As a fellow south African, I think it's cool that he was calm in this moment. i wanna be like him in situations like this
I saw Trevor Noah live. He was HILARIOUS. The writers at the daily show are destroying him, but I can’t blame him for taking the paycheck
I feel the exact same way.
Exactly!!! I feel bad for his comedy career because the Daily Show makes him look low tier funny when he’s really quite witty and hilarious.
I can blame him, its called a lack of integrity.
@@jrbionic404 That + all the horrible political takes are cringe worthy at best.
@@bongzilla4172 Agreed. I’m politically in the middle so I hate cringe on either side. I think most people are overall closer to the middle but the crazies of CNN, Fox and RUclips equivalents are the loudest.
You can see the pain in Trevor’s face once she started saying stupid shit more frequently. More power to him for staying classy.
Right? Like I wouldn't have been able to keep myself from laughing and asking what the fuck she's on about?
"Well this comedian said..."
Okay? The fuck does that got to do with me, y'goofy-bitch? LMAOOOOO!

The first time I heard Trevor Noah, it was absolutely apparent how intelligent the man is and will probably always be. Thank You Aba & Preach.
As a South African let me tell you this: we make jokes about literally EVERYTHING! We are currently going through an electricity crises and guess what we are doing? making jokes about it. Every South African comedian I have seen includes race in their stand up We laugh and laugh especially if it’s a joke about our own race 🤷🏻♀️ so she wants Trevor apologise for being South African? imagine
Ne..... imagine! Nie hie nie.
It's very much a way of a people to make comedy out of tragedy.
And when you laugh, it diffuses the tension.
no but you don't need to justify yourself, trevors joke is a joke universally, just not to certain people looking to be offended
Shes uncultured
They should have called it “Hard Time” cause that’s all she’s giving him, as well as the viewers.

For real 😂

This is exactly like those kids, at colleges, who protest when a speaker they don't like, is coming to their facility to hold an event. They get up and disrupt the auditorium with yelling and chanting because they don't agree with what that person is speaking about.
I imagined myself sitting in one of those auditoriums. I would stand up and ask them why they are disrupting the event. When they state that they don't like the speaker and think his views are garbage, I would ask them, "And how did you determine that you disagreed with their views?"
When they answered that they researched and listened to video clips, read their literature, and heard them speak.... I would then ask, "So... if you allowed yourself the right to hear this person and make up your own mind about them, why would you think that its ok to take that same right away from me?"
That's what the problem is with these types of arguments. 'I wouldn't do that, so you shouldn't.' You had the freedom to determine your own feelings on the matter, then you turn around and presume to rob the other person of that same freedom. It's arrogant, and disrespectful. As long as what they are saying doesn't violate any laws, they have to right to determine if a joke they tell is ok for them to tell. You don't have to like it, or listen to it.
@@xXBrianBelloxX I don't care what Trevor Noah does. I'm saying what I do.
@@xXBrianBelloxX Link to Trevor doing this. You keep commenting this same statement on different comments

An explanation of a joke is never anything like the joke originally being told. Even the exact words written down and read afterwards completely changes it. Like Trevor says the context with communication is so important.
